Hello Shanghai
Hello, Shanghai
Description
Book Introduction
As the saying goes, '10 years of hard work is needed for a 1-minute performance on stage'
Shanghai has long been a place where diversity comes together.
It is a space filled with the history of fusion.

Shanghai is a large city ten times larger than Seoul and has a population of 25 million.
Shanghai's complexity is not something new.
In the past, Shanghai had a special historical space called the Concession, which accommodated people from all over the world and people from other regions who had immigrated to Shanghai.
Because conflicts and friction that arise when diverse people live in one space are unavoidable, this is a space that has thought more about integration than anyone else.
After much trial and error, we finally realize that embracing diverse people and cultures and understanding diversity is the path to coexistence.
And today, Shanghai shows us its diverse appearances, with its 'thousand faces' and 'hundred aspects'.
